Abstract

The present invention provides a high-speed communication and data link between a downhole tool and a surface computer. The present invention provides a plurality of parallel data busses inside of the downhole tool for providing multiple data paths between a down hole tool memory or device and a surface computer. The present invention enables high-speed dumping of memory from the downhole tool to a surface computer. The invention also provides a web server inside of the downhole tool.
